Are you ready for a summer full of veggies and flavor? This 5-Day Summer Vegan Meal Plan is the perfect way to kickstart plant-based eating...or just not worry about meal planning for the week! I've got breakfast, lunch, and dinner (plus snacks and desserts!) all mapped out for you right here. Plus, a grocery list of everything you will need for the week!
Day 1
Breakfast: Creamy Pink Smoothie Bowl...that's right, we're starting the Summer Vegan Meal Plan with bright color and sweet flavor! Add a sprinkle of my favorite homemade granola on top for a bit of crunch.
Lunch: Pear & Roasted Beet Arugula Salad with Herbed Tahini Dressing is one of those unexpected combinations that just tastes amazing. Even if you don't usually like beets...give this one a try! My kids go for golden beets every time.
Dinner: Grilled Veggie Pesto Pasta just might be my favorite summertime dinner. Grilling the veggies adds the most incredible depth of flavor and the pasta makes it super filling.
Day 2
Breakfast: Green Juice in a Blender gets you green juice with no juicer required! It's packed with nutrients that will send you into your day with a glow. Have it with a Chia Seed Pudding...no baking required!
Lunch: Vegan Mediterranean Quinoa Salad is a prep-ahead dish that creates easy leftovers. I love having it in the fridge for snacking and lunches!
Dinner: Sweet Potato Veggie Burgers, because no Summer Vegan Meal Plan is complete without a veggie burger!
Day 3
Breakfast: Vegan Blueberry Pancakes are the breakfast that has everyone rushing to the table in the morning. I just HAD to include blueberries in the Summer Vegan Meal Plan!
Lunch: Watermelon Arugula Mason Jar Salads with Quinoa, Avocado, Pine Nuts, & Mint store easily in the refrigerator, so they're great for prepping ahead of time and eating on the go.
Dinner: Quinoa & Mango Stuffed Grilled Avocado is a quintessential summertime dinner. Every ingredient just feels like sunshine!
Day 4
Breakfast: Lemon Blueberry Smoothie is a smoothie made without banana! I love the summery flavors of lemon and blueberry together.
Lunch: Buckwheat Soba Noodle Salad is such a filling and nutritious lunch. I love making extra so I have leftovers for a few lunches!
Dinner: Easy Vegan Baked Taquitos are a home run every single time. I added them as part of the Summer Vegan Meal Plan because everyone loves it!
Day 5
Breakfast: Sunshine Smoothie really does taste like sunshine in a glass. It's citrusy and bright!
Lunch: Vegan Chickpea California Avocado "Egg" Salad Sandwich is another meal that's super easy to prep, and it's filled with plant-based protein for a well-rounded addition to the Summer Vegan Meal Plan.
Dinner: Rainbow Veggie Kebabs with Chimichurri Sauce are a full rainbow! On a kebab! Does it get better than that in the summertime?!
Snacks: Easy Paleo Zucchini "Hummus" , Vegan Blueberry Muffins, and Granola Energy Bites
Desserts: No-Churn Cherry Chocolate Ice Cream, Granola Bark, and Vegan Gluten-Free Peach Cobbler
